The initial situation

The Odysseum in Cologne, a popular adventure museum with large numbers of visitors, faced considerable challenges in parking space management. During performance times, the simultaneous rush of visitors led to traffic jams and long waiting times at barriers and ticket machines. This impaired the visitor experience and caused dissatisfaction among museum visitors.

The solution

With the Wemolo solution, the Odysseum was able to specifically solve the problem of traffic jams and long waiting times. The new, barrier-free system and flexible payment options reduce peak loads, create smooth processes and sustainably improve the visitor experience.

Congestion-free entry and exit: the installation of three state-of-the-art camera systems has eliminated the barriers that previously caused traffic jams. Even during performance changes, visitors can now enter and exit quickly and without delay.

Flexible and time-saving payment: Modern pay stations allow card payment on site, while the online payment option and integration of the EasyPark app provide additional flexibility. Visitors can conveniently pay their fees in advance or up to 24 hours after leaving. This saves time, reduces crowds at machines and gives everyone the opportunity to adapt parking to their own schedule.

With the digital system, waiting times and traffic jams are a thing of the past. Visitors enjoy stress-free processes, even on busy days. This makes a visit to the Odysseum an all-round successful experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to install the Wemolo system?

The costs for installing the digital system vary depending on the location-specific conditions of the parking area and its size. In an initial non-binding discussion, we will be happy to advise you on how to develop a tailor-made solution for your parking space and to prepare an initial cost estimate. Please contact us and our park experts will get back to you as soon as possible.

Do I buy the hardware?

The hardware required for parking space management remains the property of Wemolo GmbH during the contract period and is therefore not purchased by you. Wemolo is responsible for the reliable operation of the hardware.

What requirements must the parking area meet?

Wemolo has a solution for almost every parking space. In a non-binding conversation, we will be happy to show you what needs to be considered in your parking space. In principle, clearly identifiable entrances and exits, a power connection (230V) and good data reception (LTE/5G) are an advantage.

Where do you position the license plate scanners?

The license plate scanners are installed near the entrance. The exact location varies from location to location. Our license plate scanners have a range of up to 100 m and can capture a width of approx. 12 m. They can therefore be mounted on facades, lamp posts or on roofs.

What measures are being taken against third-party parkers?

Third party and long-term parkers who park their vehicles without authorization are recognized by our system and automatically receive a sanction notice.

What does the local signage and marking look like?

Terms and conditions and information signs are installed on each parking space, which draw attention in unpaid parking space that it is a customer parking space with a corresponding maximum parking period. The corresponding contractual penalty for infringement is also clearly visible. In paid parking spaces, these signs are supplemented by others that explain the parking process using the digital system. The signs are large and easily recognizable at the entrances and exits and on the parking area. Vehicle owners agree to the terms and conditions by driving into the parking lot.

How does optimizing parking control work with a camera system?

Our digital parking monitoring uses electronic means to monitor your parking spaces. Using AI-based software, cameras reliably record the license plates of all vehicles — without any barriers.

Are the parking time limits in this system optimally designed?

The use of digital systems makes it possible to optimize parking times. Parking space use is made efficient with parking time limits and long parking times are avoided. The parking time limit is set in consultation with your individual needs at your location.

What advantages does digital parking space monitoring offer compared to conventional parking systems with parking disc and barrier?

Companies benefit from optimizing the search for parking spaces for customers and thus creating a customer-friendly atmosphere, as nothing else needs to be considered. Optimizing parking monitoring also reduces the workload for your employees.
